Anyone else think Konsa might be worth a go as a defensive midfielder?
Bigger and more physical than Nakamba and probably a better passer.

No.  3 starting centre halfs is plenty.

Gutted we’ve not got a new striker for this, let’s hope we’ve got 2 for Leicester city

As usual, no idea. Depends on so many factors.

Very close to the old cliche of being a six pointer.

That aggression to close space and lay a glove on the opposition has to be there from the off. Having a striker certainly helps, but here we are. It looked risky in the summer and so that has proved.

If you're going on Tuesday, then park your frustrations, even in adversity and back the side to the hilt.

Agree totally. Will be there, lets get these three points

Yes, what you said. Go with what we have, give Indiana a go, as we might need some young legs to run and cause problems for Watford.

Dont fear the 'fear

Where Indiana seemingly worked on Saturday was the total opposite - bringing young fresh legs on to run at them and press higher up to see the game out.

If we start him he will inevitably run out of gas at 60 mins - what do we do then?

Protect our 2 goal lead?

This is where I’m going to upset you. Regardless who we sign they can’t play. Needed to be registered before first leg

Little stat that’s keeping me positive.
We’ve not conceded a goal in our x3 night games at VP in the Prem this season

We badly need the first goal in this.

If we do get it I think we'll win.

Watford score early and I fear it will be re-run of Southampton.

Certainly in the minority but I'd be happy with a point from this. Bournemouth is the must win of the next two imo.

Ask anyone on here about my ‘claims’. I post what I know. We enquired about him. That’s all.
If your trying to have a go at my ‘info’. Think you’ll find I also told everyone that Wes and Heatons were ACL’s and season jobs. Plus Mcginns ankle break and 3 month period out. But guess that doesn’t fit the narrative

Calm down people. We are all on the same side remember. Tension getting to one or two I think. That can easily transfer to the players. Keep the faith and enjoy the ride. Win lose or draw we continue to support Villa.

No I trust you that was the issue . Actually I find you most reliable hence I was asking and wanting to hear more.
I was just disappointed we never heard anymore.
Esp as we have no strikers!
And I'm only right to say about Benteke as to be fair anything else you post is separate and I shouldn't question general integrity .
Just upset that you told us Benteke is coming and then nothing.
